WELL PLACED.
As an example of "a well-placed family," the New York Herald gives the following:—There is a rumor that tlie Crown Prince of Holland will marry the Princess of Wales. This will in the course of nature make the Princess Queen of Holland. The King of Denmark, her father, is one of the poorest monarchs in Europe, and has perhaps the smallest kingdom. He has done remarkably well with his large
family. One daughter will probably be Empress of Russia, the other Queen of England. One son is King of Greece, another will be King of Denmark, and now another crown comes into his family. To have children reigning over England, Russia, Greece, Denmark, and Holland, is a great achievement in the way of honor and power.
